If so, I'm sorry that happened. I know it's awful to be startled by an ad. I have mid-roll ads disabled on all of my content, but YouTube has a confirmed issue that causes them to play for some viewers anyway. This has been happening across YouTube since at least mid-2022, and unfortunately, it still has not been fixed.

The problem often appears as a 30-second ad around the 6-hour mark and disproportionately affects iPhone and iPad users. I've investigated it extensively and explain what I've found here: https://youtu.be/ndeUVgZMh1Y

If you feel misled by the title stating "no mid-roll ads," please know that the vast majority of viewers are able to watch without interruption. I would never intentionally put a mid-roll ad in content people use to focus, relax, and sleep.

Once it became clear that this problem was not going away, I spent a year developing a free app called Easy Ambience. It lets you build your own ambient soundscapes using noise, recorded sounds, waveforms, and effects, without ads interrupting the audio. Easy Ambience is available for iOS and Android at https://www.easyambience.app/.

You can also check this video's description for other ways to listen. Odysee is an ad-free option, and live stream versions of many of my most popular sounds are available on YouTube as well.

You're welcome to reply with details about what happened to you, but I already have a pretty solid understanding of the issue. Hostile comments directed at me over ads I did not insert will be removed.

I appreciate your patience and understanding. I wish YouTube would fix the underlying problem, but Easy Ambience is my attempt to give you an option where I have control over the listening experience.

My dad passed away 5 days ago. I haven't slept for more than 3 hrs a night ever since. I put this on last night and was out in 5 minutes, and actually stayed asleep for 7 hrs. I'm going to try it again tonight.

I suffered a terrible accident when I was 2 years old in 1983 and suffered a TBI, by rights, I shouldn't be here. Definitely had angels beside me that day. But, i have repercussions from living. I have arthritis in my skull, a TBI, my brain doesn't switch off like normal peoples does, I have Organic Personality Disorder and I've also not long but a couple of days ago had occipital nerve injections in the base of my skull right very close to the main artery that leads to my brain, so that has knocked me sideways the last few days. This os amazing for me. Thank You so much. Please, dont ever stop ❤

I went 2 years and 2 months being woken up multiple times due to an inconsiderate upstairs neighbor. Your 432 Hz blended with deep brown nose, black screen and most importantly NO ADS video was literally a life saver. If not my life, certainly my neighbor’s! lol. I cannot thank you enough. You don’t accept coffee donations and you don’t post a PayPal or Venmo account. I also know you deliberately went unmonetized but I owe you big time! THANK YOU!!!! ❤🙏🏼🏆💯😍

Noise brown + 432hz + black screen + NO ADS = TOP 🔝 TOP

25 seconds. That’s how long it took playing this to help my infant fall asleep. This is magic ❤

It's weird how this makes me calmer in like 3 minutes,  it's like your in a cave with a blizzard outside

This has been my go to for a couple weeks now I'm actually dreaming and I can remember my dreams too. I feel I'm getting deep sleep. This has been a game changer!❤

i’m not gonna lie i been going to sleep to this every night for years 😭

If space had a sound, I feel this would be it. Lovely, thanks.

I've been using this video for the last three months to sleep. My father usually stays up until later than me, making noise in the process, and this has helped me suppress that. 0 ads, just the wind and me. I just wanted to give you my most sincerely thanks for such a gift.

I used to play your deep brown noise video all night, until I discovered deep brown noise with 432hz. Thank you for keeping it ad-free- most other videos have several loud ad’s that play at the beginning of the video and you cannot skip them. It completely defeats the purpose of winding down! Thank you for keeping this just the way it is 🙏🏼

you know it's really great of you to put these out ad free for everyone to enjoy ❤ i wanted to thank you personally for how well i've been sleeping ! no more being woken up by noisy and bright ads , and this sound is truly superior when it comes to relaxation properties . your efforts are very much appreciated my friend . i love you 🫂❤

Like flying on a jet. The drone of an engine, washing out everything, makes it easy to fall asleep and stay asleep. Calming and restorative sleep.

I usually listen to your brown noise. I'm going to try this one tonight, thank you.

Thank you so much. This has been an awesome resource in my recovery from a TBI. My neurologist led me here. It's literally life saving

It sounds like when you sit on a plane, have your headphones on and try to sleep, very sleepy sound

This did not help my tinnitus but i am very grateful you have something like this and Ill be looking for more like it. I am sure this is perfect from some people. Thank you very much for this and helping raise money for it.

Thank you so much! I feel like im snug on an airplane and drifted off happily! ❤ I love 432hz and also 528hz is magical too! Blessings xoxoxoxoxo

This, oddly enough helped me calm down before having a panic attack. i have bpd and am prob never gonna stop listening to this now.
